Mumbai, August 20, 2024.
Filmmaker Karan Johar on Tuesday said the blockbuster success of horror comedy “Stree 2” is a celebration of both Hindi and Indian mainstream cinema, which in the last few years has been under “scrutiny for combatting” challenges at the box office.
Directed by Amar Kaushik and produced by Maddock Films, “Stree 2” released in theatres on August 15 alongside other films such as “Khel Khel Mein”, “Vedaa”, “Thangalaan” and “Double iSmart”.
The Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor-starrer, a sequel to 2018’s “Stree”, is nearing the Rs 300 crore-mark globally in gross box office collections.
